So K'naan got together with this mixtape DJ named J.Period and made a series of Mixtapes paying tribute to three of the most influential musicians of the late 20th Century. The first tape is dedicated to Nigeria's Fela Kuti, the second to Bob Marley, and the third to Bob Dylan. You can download the tapes here
Here's K'naan & J. Period on "Relationships Lay" off the third tape.
& Here's a separate K'naan tracks thats been out for a while now, but one that definitely should of been on Troubadour
good stuff!

ReplyDeleteWhen i heard the somalian part it really make me remember my country. That part of the song is something ppl saying on our independence day July 1. So to translate he says :
today, today, today, today is the big day
today, today, today, today is our freedom day (or it could mean independence day)
So yeah, you can see the crowd go crazy when he sings it (well the somalian ones stand up crazy) like the lady 3:33 haha. It brings back good memories...ill tell u more about it another time
